Christmas Greetings!


I know many challenges had "Christmas in July," but since I missed most of them, I'm making my own "Christmas in August"!  LOL



On our trip to England last fall, I loved seeing the phone boxes and the postboxes!  When I saw this image at Delicious Doodles, I had to have it!! 

Supplies...
~Delicious Doodles Snowy Postbox
~Spectrum Noir markers
~My Craft Spot "Joy to the World" sentiment
~Spellbinders Circles and Scalloped Circles
~sparkle gel pen

I added a bit of sparkle to the snow


Challenges...

My Craft Spot Monday Challenge #107 - clean & simple
jingle belles JB:13:16 - "Home for the Holidays"

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!
